Re: Women Aren't Funny
Kunga actually does not need any philosophy or Buddhism in her life as it only seems to serve to keep her tied up in her problems. Sometimes it looks like she actually thrives on being criticized and ridiculed here, as if it's only affirming what she already believes about herself. What she should ...

Re: Suffering Revisited
Human nature is self-nature that fiercely clings to/protects something eternally "becoming." My question for you which is the same question I ask myself several times a day: are you a self-of-fierce clinging/protecting something "becoming" or to use your words, are you an enligh...

Re: Consciousness vs. the Infinite
KJ: You've just contradicted yourself. Since form and emptiness are both the non-dual, any form or duality (e.g. a perception of duality or of non-duality) must be the non-dual. Kunga: Ok. You got me on that one. But there are really no contradictions if all perceptions [including a "mispercep...

Re: Women Aren't Funny
Criticising a person's behaviour isn't an argumentum ad hominem. An argumentum ad hominem is an illogical form of argument against the proposition of another person, that relies discrediting that proposition by refering to their character or other personal information, when the proposition makes no ...

Women that have spent many years studying the spiritual/logical/philosophical , are just as competent as men. Name any female at all that is as competent as any truly spiritual man.

Re: Women Aren't Funny
But misogyny is a hatred that is blind to the ideal of woman being anything but inferior. You tend to assume, mistakenly, that judging women generally to be inferior to men, in the spiritual-logical-philosophical realm, must be driven by hatred. It's a shallow-minded position stemming from your own...

windhawk, your approach to the existence of God is essentially contradictory. You're asserting it exists, via your assumed proof means not relying on reason or any concepts. But your very approach relies on reason and conceptualisation. If God is synonymous with nonduality, and therefore has no char...

Re: Enlightenment / Despair
Hello again I've noticed the geniuses highly regarded in this forum (Nietzsche, Kierkegaard, Jesus, Weininger) all seemed to suffer from deep despair, at least for a time. Now I don't regard myself as a genius, but I struggle with despair. I would describe it as a kind of existential despair, coupl...

Re: Women Aren't Funny
Great post, Russell. All I'd add is that neoteny, self-presentation as infant, is what Weininger would class a sexual character for women. Babies giggle and laugh, not from a startled admiration of someone's contrived contrapposition of the real vs. imaginary (the sense of humour), but from a primit...

Re: feminists are more hypocritical than I thought.
The fact men are usually quick to recognise the base and ignoble aspects of sexual desire, when corrected , speaks otherwise. When it's pointed out that they don't think about overpopulation or the good of the species, when they're in the throes of lust, they fall silent and submit to the judgment. ...

The two - women and fashion - are synonymous Man looks into the eyes of woman searching for the something that will give his life meaning and purpose.
